I agree, I just wish they would capitalize on the rich heritage that they have and refresh their bikes. I know the Iron 883 is a basic and purpose-built bike, but the demogaphic that purchases bikes like these are starting to demand more from the manufacturer in terms of rider aids and creature comforts. Indian does a very good job of this keeping these simple but very modern.

Saw this video a year ago but got an R7. Still wanted the 883 so I got a 2019 two weeks ago and I agree 100% with your 5 reasons to owning an Iron 883. Now both bikes meet my needs whenever I wanna cruise or simply feel “fast”. No need to go past 130 for me, to each it’s own, as long as we all make it back home. Thanks for sharing this video.

I'm 61, have owned several bikes from a Honda CD 175 back in late 70's through a Laverda monjuic and RGS 1000, to my current 2011 Thruxton 900, but never a Harley. These videos are seriously making me want one, just for that sound. An 883 or 48 is on the horizon, before I'm too old.

It's a beautiful bike. I have a 2021 Deadwood Green 883 Iron. In my 48 years of riding all types of bikes (Japanese, European and U.S, 175cc - 1600cc) I consider it one of the nicest looking bikes I've owned. In addition, with mid controls, it fits me (5'6") well ergonomically and with forward controls would be a good fit for taller riders. It has respectable power and cruising at 70-80 mph is no sweat.

1968 Cycle World Magazine on the Sportster." It'll grow hair on your chest and part it down the middle"!! It only got better since

First off: looks. Man, that has always been one of my favorite platforms. Had one years ago and if I ever get out of debt, may get another one. So much you can do to one.

Harley shouldn't have discontinued this beauty

My reasons: looks, sound, looks in that order. Great video! Keep em comin

It was the one Harley that caught my eye when I rode sport bikes.... And then finally I got one recently. Very happy with it around town. Ride highway every now and again

Cheers for sharing! I do love this color....it kinda grew on me, like olives. Great video and just makes me want an 883 more than ever

She’s looking good man 🔥 loving the mods

This has always been my favourite Harley Davidson. I remember the 1984 XLX-61. It has very similar styling. I remember the introduction of the 883 in 1986 Sportsters are beautiful bikes... simple, uncluttered, classic styling.. Love this video 😎

Minhas razões! Harley tem o meu estilo, acho uma moto altamente customizável, a 883 é muito dinâmica na estrada e cidade, o consumo é baixo relativo a potência que ela entrega! Ótimo vídeo!

Man your Bike sounds awesome! I had an Iron 883 myself in germany and I can tell ya the prices went absolute CRAZY. Since the sportsters are not allowed to be sold new anymore in the EU because of emission restrictions, the 2020 model was the last one to be sold new here. Dealerships are not allowed to sell the 2021 model. Therefore the prices for used bikes did explode completly. I sold my used but near new 2020 iron 883 with 700 miles on it for 12900 Euro in mai 2021, which is something about 15.000 dollars right now! And there was no expensive customizing on it, was completly stock

Nice machine. Very nice. Never gave a HD serious consideration as a potential next ride but, the sound and the aesthetics are undeniably addictive. Enjoy!

Congratulations on a sweet bike man. Gotta love sportsters!

I'll be getting my 2017 Iron 883 in matte black as my first bike as well for $5k and this video makes me even more stoked to bring it home and begin modifying it as well. Cheers from the 915

I've been on the fence of getting my motorcycle license for years now. Decided to take the leap and enroll in the MSF and I sat on an iron 883 today. It was exceptionally comfy and I'd mainly use it for commuting. Looks like a good, mellow ride :) thanks for the video! I think this is what I'm ultimately gonna shoot for.

@Mark Andrews an iron 883 is kind of a small bike to be honest, and comes stock with mid controls for your feet, which is a perfect setup for a shorter person, off the top of my head weight is somewhere around 600 pounds as to a big Harley weighs around 8-900,

@Mark Andrews she could easily ride my brothers Harley and his is around 850 pounds, yes it is a lot of weight but you’d be surprised what your legs can hold up, the biggest thing I can say is don’t let it worry you, pay attention and always be open to learning tips of riding, I originally bought a 1971 sportster which was an iron head and pretty much the same as the newer 883 but you shifted with your right foot instead of your left, that was the bike I learned to ride on, no endorsement we I started out, brought bike home got on it and rode down the street, continued from there sold that bike and bought my 2019 easiest way to get an endorsement is do your practice then find a place that uses scooters for road test

Thanks for the video. Very helpful

And here’s a thought, it doesn’t have to be your first bike, you know, the bike you get first, the first bike you learn on, sort of like number one, the first bike you get! You can actually keep it forever because they’re so good they don’t have to be your first bike!

Nice bike! I like the color a lot too. My first bike was a 2004 Sportster 1200 R. Loved it and want to get another Sportster.

i got an iron883 about 3 weeks ago and i absolutely love it! it's not the fastest but its def. so much fun! its also a lot more comfortable than what i anticipated it to be. aha.

Crazy the first thing I thought when seeing the iron 883 was classic simple and tough. I'm onboard with it. Good bike man.

Awesome vid im switching from sportbikes to a harley and this is the one that stands out to me as well....cheers

Sweet! Great bike! Nice music! Well done 👍

Best thing about the 883 is 2 passes thru the cylinders with a boring bar removes about a 1/2" of iron, a couple of wiseco 9.5 to 1 compression big bore pistons and you got a bike with some serious grunt, about doubling the power of the stock 883 wich is now 1200+ ! Also drops about 5lbs of high center of gravity weight for better corner scratching and the thinner cylinders run cooler, did mine before the first oil change was due and it hasn't missed a beat in almost 30, 000 mi and I never get tired of twisten the throttle.

Couldn’t agree with you more. Bought an 883, some basic upgrades done, for a reasonable price, then, customized to my heart’s desire over time.

Love the simplicity of this bike

I'm on a 125 , my keeway k light is my first step into cruiser dom....and this is my dream bike . Love the exhaust sound ommmggg

Beautiful bike.. i love that colour & the radius pipes as well

Your #3 was my #1 Saw her and fell in love the very same second. My #2 is the history. The Evo motor is the most raw, authentic and historic motor you can get from HD atm and it is out there for an eternety so it should be reliable and bulletproof. No other motor in the harley line can give you that particular "good old times" shaking Harley Feeling. My #3 is the sound. I really thing this engine has character to it. My #4 is the customizability and my #5 is - it´s perfect as a 2nd "ride ´round town" bike. I now ride a 1000cc Versys from Kawasaki with hardcases and windshield - perfect for highways and longer distances and trips. Again - please feel invited to my channel at any time that´s to your liking - there are vid´s in engl language as well :o)

This is nice video. Thanks,dude. Now i am gonna get my own 883.

That color! Love the graphics HD used back then on the tank too! I also chose the 883 as a first bike and super pleased with it so far. I got it brand new off the showroom floor with 5 miles on it. Bought it October 15th and haven’t had a single day yet that I can ride without at least a jacket on. Can’t wait for 70+ degrees again! I agree with how easy it is to ride! Excellent to start on IMO. Heck, I’ll probably never get a “bigger “ bike honestly? I’m sure that one day I’ll add some hammer performance mods to it and squeeze as much power from it as I can but that’s down the road and the amount of hp and torque people are getting out of the 883 with the available mods is way more than anything I’ll ever have use for honestly. Looooove my black denim, 2020, iron 883!!!

If that is your first bike, I think you made an excellent decision. I've been riding for several hundred years, and if this sweet ride was available when I started, I would have snatched it up. That freaking bad-ass green color is.... well, bad ass. That is a beautiful ride. Cheers!

I used to have a 883. Now I have a bigger Harley but I damn sure miss that 883 for everyday riding. I think I'll save the bike I have now just for touring and start looking for another 883 for everyday riding.

That color is sick, and becoming sought after. Keep it! Thanks for the vid. Totally agree with your points; I only lasted 3 weeks with my 883 before jumping to a 1200. If I was to do it again, I’d go straight to the 1200 as they’re really not THAT different. Either way, such a great bike.

I owned one, was almost killed on it by a soccer mom. Anyway, some things: It SUCKS on the highway. Top speed of 80 mph. Great for putting around town. Front tire has NO grip so if you turn right on gravel you can expect to wipe out. Get upgraded wheel/tires asap. Also make sure you get on with ABS. It should be mentioned if you are over 5'10 and 200 lbs this bike may be too small for you. In this price range, check out the Honda Fury: 1300 CC, big fat tire, looks cool right out of the box., super reliable. Wear your gear and ride safe!

You have good taste in customizing.

Hey I've gone from a Ducati to a Ninja to a Harley Davidson over the last few years. I choose the Street 500 as an affordable entry level Harley.

Hey, really loved your video. It was just what I was looking for since I'm thinking about returning to biking after 20 years and the iron 883 is what I'm currently looking at. Just have a couple of questions if you don't mind. How are the brakes and handling? I'm not intending to go flat out just leasurely rides and in my country we don't have too many straight long roads since it's a pretty small country (Malta, EU). Also I've read online that they drip oil from the air cleaner due to a blowback pipe or something. Do you have issues with oil dripping on your pipes/right leg?
